The next day, about half an hour before noon, a group of cavalry had already gathered at the east gate of the palace.
The prince in a brocade robe, with a bow and arrow on his back, was at the front of the cavalry in high spirits. Next to him were two handsome young men on horseback. One is naturally Shaoqing, and the other is General Liu Zhen.
Although General Liu Zhen is young, his martial arts are extremely strong, and his riding and shooting ability is even more difficult to match. However, neither this country nor the southern countries had much diplomacy. As a general, he was mainly stationed in the forbidden army in the capital, and most of them were directly under the emperor's command.
"Is everyone here?" The prince glanced at the horse team behind him, there were probably dozens of people. After all, it was the prince who was going out hunting, so there were a lot of guards, accounting for most of the members of the cavalry.
Fei Yi was riding a horse, just behind Shaoqing.
When the prince turned around, she hurriedly lowered her head.
Those purple eyes, just looking at it, has a feeling that the soul has also been absorbed.
She still remembers the last words her mother said before she died.
Even though she hated this country, even though she hated the emperor, mother still chose this world.
She wants Fei Yi to save the world.
Once the curse is activated, it will not stop until everyone in this world dies.
"Fei Yi, you should know, right? You can't let the death retribution spirit be born. Otherwise, a real bond will be established between the ominous space and the human world. At that time, terrible things will happen. Once this curse chain is activated, it will be a curse. The catastrophe of human extinction. Until all human beings are extinct, that door will not be closed... Absolutely not!"
To stop that from happening...
Crimson knows this very well.
Because the mother interfered too much in the different space, her existence was destined to be obliterated. Therefore, the only hope lies with her.
For this reason, at the expense of everything, but also to prevent the birth of the spirit of death.
This is her destiny.
Of course, no one knew about it.
In the past two years, every day, she seemed to be living in a nightmare...
"It seems that everyone is here," the prince smiled and said, "Well, everyone, let's go."
The horse team began to drive towards Dongshan mightily, and when they were galloping on the streets of the capital, the pedestrians retreated one after another, fearing that they would not be able to avoid it. And Shaoqing, who followed the prince closely, kept paying attention to Feiyi behind him.
Shaoqing knew that monitoring Feiyi was also one of his jobs.
Contrary to their preoccupations, the prince was very excited. Staying in the palace on weekdays, seldom have the opportunity to go out, facing some official documents every day, living a luxurious life day after day, feeling that life is very empty. Now, I finally have a chance to let off steam.
Dongshan is very vast. There are three entrances to the mountain from the capital. The widest road is far away, while the nearest road is very narrow and quite rough. However, the prince ordered to go this way. He is a person who likes to go against the current very much. Because everyone knew the prince's character, so they didn't stop him.
The trees beside this path are extremely lush. Although it is close to noon now, there are only a few rays of sunlight shining down, which probably has something to do with the fact that it is approaching winter and the light is not strong.
Because the road was not easy to walk and the horses could not run, everyone walked very slowly. The tree shadows on both sides are uneven, dense, deep and full of mystery, which makes people feel a little palpitating.
After all, this is a valley full of beasts!
General Liu Zhen said to the prince: "Your Highness, do you really want to go this way? I don't think it's right..." "What's wrong?"
"His Royal Highness, the road here is too narrow, and there are trees on both sides. If wild beasts attack, we may not be able to escort them in time. Your Highness's safety is the most important, so..."
The prince laughed loudly, took the big bow from behind, and said: "General, you are too worried. With my archery skills, how can a beast approach me so easily? What's more, this kind of atmosphere is what hunting needs. Don't you think so?"
However, Shaoqing agreed with Liu Zhen's words: "Your Highness, I also think that General Liu's words are reasonable. If Your Highness is really determined to go this way, please let me wait around His Highness. If there is an emergency, I'll keep you safe, and please don't refuse."
The prince said dumbfoundingly: "Okay, Shaoqing, don't be like this, okay? I'm so weak, do you want you to protect me like this?"
However, after hearing what they said, the prince really looked at the trees on both sides.
It doesn't matter if you don't watch it, but after you really watch it...
He unexpectedly found that in the shadow of the tree on his right, there seemed to be a dark thing crawling on the ground.
The prince immediately tightened the bow in his hand.
what is that
rabbit? fox
Judging from its size, it doesn't look like a wolf.
The prince smiled slightly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as it came, there was prey.
He originally planned to shoot with his bow, but he was afraid that the guards would startle the animal by yelling and make it run away, so he planned to observe carefully before speaking, so he also slowed down his riding speed.
At this time, Shaoqing also noticed that the prince was looking at the trees on the right, and his gaze was also directed there.
However, Shaoqing... didn't see anything.
Suddenly, the crawling black shadow accelerated and headed towards the depths of the forest.
It's amazingly fast!
The prince became anxious, he didn't think about anything for a while, and immediately drove his horse into the deep forest! "Too... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Shaoqing shouted, and then rushed up.
The prince quickly noticed the crawling black shadow again.
This time, he gradually saw the outline of the animal clearly.
It looks like a monkey.
Strangely, the animal didn't seem to be moving very fast, but the prince kept driving the horse, but he couldn't catch up.
The prince was in a hurry, and immediately stretched his bow to the full string, and shot an arrow.
But it didn't hit, but sank into a tree.
The prince's competitive spirit was fully aroused, and he shot several more arrows, but he still didn't touch the animal.
And Shaoqing, who was following behind him, also became anxious. He watched the prince keep shooting arrows, as if he was aiming at something, but he still couldn't see what he was shooting.
In the end, even the prince's figure became blurred in Shaoqing's eyes.
The trees are too closely arranged, and the sunlight shining down is so sparse that it is impossible to distinguish the direction.
"Your Highness! Your Highness!" Shaoqing finally became anxious, and even started to shout.
At this time, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes coming from behind him, and when he looked back, Fei Yi, Liu Zhen and others also came over.
Fei Yi looked at the figure of the prince who was about to disappear, and suddenly she covered her heart, and her face began to show a look of panic.
Shaoqing had been with Fei Yi for two years, and he had never seen her look so frightened, so he was puzzled for a while. But then, he began to understand.
Could it be...
The prince chased the black animal, but after running for a long time, he could not find the animal again.
He couldn't help being a little frustrated, thinking that he had shot more than ten arrows in total, but none of them hit it? It's outrageous!
However, at this moment, a strange voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Come here... come here..."
This voice flashed in his mind very abruptly, and before the prince could even react, the voice repeated itself like a mantra.
"Come here... come here... you... are our chosen one..."
When the prince heard this, his feet trembled.
what is that
He suddenly fell off the horse, and his whole body was almost paralyzed.
The surrounding area was very lonely, and Shaoqing and the others could not be seen.
This is where
Just when the prince was struggling to stand up, he looked to the side and suddenly trembled from shock and fell to the ground.
No…
no…
On his horse, there was... a person sitting on it!
No, is that really a person
That person, his face was completely rotten, his left eye was completely protruding from his face, hanging danglingly, his cheeks were full of red moles, densely distributed, and his mouth had no lips at all...
The scariest thing is...
He was actually wearing the exact same clothes as himself, and... had a pair of purple eyes staring at him!
